[youwouldntlietopapa]

If it isn't too much trouble, might I request some wholesome headcanons for the Papa (or Papas) of your choice helping a reader who has seasonal affective disorder, and gets depressed during the winter time when it isn't as sunny out and all the colorful plants and trees are dead/dormant?

Doesn't have to be multiple Papas, just whoever you feel like writing for :3

Not too much trouble at all! This was extremely cute and I needed that. Thank you!

All right, here we go.

Primo:

He’s not particularly fond of the winter either. The cold makes his joints ache and not having his garden to work in leaves him with too much time on his hands.

It does give him an idea to help you both however and he goes on a bit of a shopping spree.

Suddenly your quarters are filled with plants. Brightly coloured potted plants of all types. Succulents and flowers and vines, a massive monstera, and a fern or two.

Among his shopping haul are a few rather high end grow lights. After doing some reading, he discovered they can also help with SAD, so win-win.

“They make the plants happy and they make you happy. You see? I say you are il mio fiore prezioso (my precious flower) and science says also to treat you like so. Good light. Plant friends. More water. You know how good I take care of my garden, amore. I don’t let you wilt, eh?”

He’d been so grumpy about being stuck inside and having nothing to keep himself busy with, he finally has something to throw himself into.

Making you happy makes him happy, everyone benefits.

Also gives you a chance to buy him a very silly “Plant Dad” shirt.

Secondo:

He doesn’t say much at first, seeing there’s a problem and quietly going about trying to find a solution.

You are sad, so doing things for you he knows you usually make you happy makes sense. But this seems like something else.

Finally gives in and just asks. He’s very bad at guessing. He tries, but he’s so bad at it. Please just tell this man.

Once he understands the problem, he can plan properly. And, luckily, he has SO many saved holiday hours. Besides, there’s the Abbey in Rome. He can work from there just as easily. If not more so.

Immediately books you both a trip to Italy and rents a private villa with a view.

He plays tour guide every time you go out and is, genuinely, excited to show you everything. Places he grew up, that he loves and has missed, all the food and wine and art and history.

For Secondo, who is often a man of few words, he talks more than you’ve ever heard him speak in the weeks you’re there. The sunshine and the warmth and the beauty definitely improve your mood, but seeing him almost giddy over getting to introduce you to new things might actually be the best part.

Or maybe seeing him in a speedo when you go to the beach.

Both. Probably both.

Terzo:

This man can’t stand seeing you sad. He NEEDS to fix this.

Much like Primo, he goes shopping. Unlike Primo, he fills your quarters with every rose he could lay his hands on.

When you find him, he’s laid out on the bed only covered by a few strategically placed rose petals. Nips and bits.

He also has a new collection of the gaudiest floral shirts, suits, and ties you’ve ever seen.

After deciding that just sitting with the sun lamp isn’t enough to cheer anyone up, he sets up a “picnic” on the floor. Blanket, basket, and all the extras laid out under the lamp. So you can enjoy the sunshine and his company.

He will do pretty much anything it takes to make you smile. Including coming to find you in his Papal robes and nothing else, and shaving his pubes into fun and amusing shapes.

And, at the end of the day, he’ll make your favourite dinner, put on your favourite movie, and wrap you in cuddles and kisses and love.

Copia:

He struggles with SAD as well. It’s something he usually just tries to bully himself into dealing with and keeping it to himself.

But you’re not him. You’re important. For the first time he’s actually motivated to try and find something that helps.

All the things he privately brushed off as “silly” or deciding they wouldn’t work, he’s suddenly eager to try for your sake.

He thinks that, at least if you’re happy, and he helped, he’ll feel better.

The truth is, he’s helping himself as much as you.

Not everything works, but you tried it together and that made it worth while.

Some things are genuinely helpful and doing those things together is also made even better.

Just knowing that neither of you are alone and that you both have someone who understands and has your back is the most helpful thing.

Especially on days when one of you is just not in a mood to be cheered up, you know that’s okay. That you’re allowed to be sad and they’ll be there in whatever way you need without judging you or being weird about it.

You found things that worked and that didn’t together. You can do this together too.

He does make one purchase though. A pair of unicorn onsies. For bad days. So you can put on something both comfy and silly. Which, more often than not, is actually helpful. Especially watching him trying to sneak to the kitchens for snacks in his without getting caught.

SOIL SCIENCE AND PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT THEYRE DOING

Genuinely listening to a soil scientist or master horticulturalist ramble about literally any topic always results in a massive density of information. So many plant-tubers and tik tokers can give you tips, they may even have plants that thrive, but they can't exactly tell you -why-

"I use this product and it works! go buy it!"

Well why does it work? Is it tested and certified? do you know if this is a Fertilizer? a soil conditioner? does it work with organic systems?? Are there papers backing it up at all???

"I dunno! use my affiliate link!!"

and everyone has such wildly different home environments and climates and windows sizes that just saying "do x" without having a deep understanding of the conditions present means!! A-lot!! and houseplants don't have to be complicated but a lot of people fail at having a green thumb because nothing is explained properly. Some people do extremely well and don't realize it's mostly because they have large unobstructed windows whereas the person struggling is dealing with a north facing window covered by buildings and tree's and thinking their friend just grows em better and gets discouraged.

Listen to someone who studies this or does it professionally and they can give you broadly helpful tips backed by science with measurable improvements to back it up, rather than the SEA of AI written or regurgitated information. If you ask how to take care of a plant to google, you have to DIG to find relevant, helpful, GOOD info that isn't just spewed from the mouths of people shooting in the dark and having success.

"place plant in indirect light, fast draining soil, let it dry out before watering" - houseplant tips dreamed up by the utterly deranged, incurious, and actively unhelpful to anyone and harmful for beginners!! THEY HAVE PLAYED US FOR ABSOLUTE FOOLS!

My 'indirect light' Monstera can sit in sunlight all damn day AND THEY GROW IN FULL SUNLIGHT IN THE WILD!! Why then, does everyone think they can thrive in a semi dim corner of your house?? Why are you telling me my Hoya Kerii, a semi succulent that needs tons of full sun to thrive will do just fine getting like, 1 or two hours of it. It will not grow! It may even lose leaves and suffer!! (That hoya has thrown tantrums for months and I thought I was to blame!!)

I didn't know what VPD was! I didn't know the real difference between organic and synthetic fertilizers or what nutrient cycling was! I didn't know the benefits of algae growth in your soil and the indicators of a healthy micro-biome! WHATS HUMIC ACID, WOW LOOK AT THE SCIENCE BACKING UP HOW FUCKING HELPFUL IT IS! So much info shoved aside in favor of 'quick plant hacks' that barely contribute anything to your actual development of understanding how to make your Rare tropicals and indoor garden thrive!!

GO WATCH THE CHANNEL "GARDENING IN CANADA" AND BE AMAZED AT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LISTEN TO SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT THEYRE DOING!! Some of their vids only have like, 3k views and they were more helpful in understanding and diagnosing issues I had than people posting full ass houseplant guides

10 Tips for New Monstera Plant Owners

Monstera plants, also known as Swiss cheese plants, have become increasingly popular recently. With their large, unique leaves and easy-to-care-for nature, it's no wonder why they've become a favorite among plant enthusiasts. If you're a new Monstera plant owner, here are 10 tips to help you care for your new green friend.

Watering: Monstera plants prefer to be watered thoroughly but infrequently. Let the top inch of soil dry out before watering again.

Lighting: Monstera plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing them in direct sunlight, as this can scorch their leaves.

Humidity: Monstera plants love humidity. You can increase the humidity around your plant by misting it with water or placing a humidifier nearby.

Soil: Monstera plants prefer well-draining soil. A soil mix of potting soil, perlite, and peat moss is a great option.

Fertilizer: Monstera plants benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season (spring and summer). Use a balanced fertilizer every 2-3 weeks.

Pruning: Monstera plants can grow quite large, so pruning is important to keep them in check. Trim any yellow or brown leaves, as well as any stems that are growing too long.

Propagation: Monstera plants are easy to propagate. Simply cut a stem with a few leaves and place it in water or soil.

Pests: Monstera plants are generally pest-resistant but can still attract spider mites and mealybugs. Keep an eye out for any signs of infestation and treat promptly.

Repotting: Monstera plants don't need to be repotted often, but when they do, choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Patience: Monstera plants grow slowly, so be patient with your plant. With proper care, it will eventually grow into a beautiful, full-grown plant.

By following these Monstera care tips, you'll be well on your way to becoming a successful Monstera plant owner. Happy growing!

Embracing Indoor Gardening: The Top Trends for 2024

As we step into 2024, the world of indoor gardening is buzzing with fresh trends that not only beautify our homes but also promote well-being. Whether you’re a seasoned plant parent or just starting your green journey, this year brings exciting options that can transform your indoor space into a lush oasis. Let’s explore some of the top trending indoor plants for 2024 and tips on how to incorporate them into your home.

1. Funky Foliage: Unique Varieties

One of the standout trends this year is the rise of unique foliage plants. Think of varieties like the Monstera Albo with its striking white variegation or the quirky Philodendron Pink Princess, known for its beautiful pink-tinged leaves. These plants not only serve as stunning focal points but also reflect individual style. Position them in well-lit areas to showcase their colors and patterns. Use decorative pots that complement their aesthetics, making them a statement piece in your living room or home office.

2. Air-Purifying Powerhouses

More than just visual appeal, many of this year’s trending plants offer air-purifying benefits. The Snake Plant and Peace Lily are both popular for their ability to filter indoor air pollutants. Incorporating these plants into your space can enhance air quality, making your home healthier. Consider placing them in bedrooms or workspaces to maximize their benefits, ensuring that you breathe cleaner air while enjoying their beauty.

3. Small but Mighty: Miniature Plants

Miniature plants are all the rage in 2024. From tiny succulents to diminutive ferns, these little green companions are perfect for small spaces or as part of a larger arrangement. They can easily fit on desks, windowsills, or shelves. Pair them in clusters for a trendy look, or use terrariums to create captivating miniature landscapes. Their small size makes them low-maintenance, appealing to both novice and busy plant owners.

4. Sustainable Choices

Sustainability continues to influence our plant choices in 2024. Many are opting for locally sourced plants or those that require less water and care. Plants like ZZ Plant and Pothos are not only hardy but also require minimal upkeep, making them perfect for eco-conscious gardeners. When shopping for plants, consider those that promote biodiversity or are grown without harmful chemicals. Supporting local nurseries can also reduce your carbon footprint while helping your community.

5. Tech-Savvy Gardening

With advancements in technology, indoor gardening has become more accessible than ever. Smart plant pots with built-in sensors can monitor moisture levels and alert you when your plants need watering. In 2024, expect to see more integrated systems that help you track the health of your plants, making plant care simpler. Embracing these innovations allows you to enjoy gardening without the stress of constant upkeep.

Conclusion

As you delve into the world of indoor plants this year, remember that the journey is as important as the destination. Embracing trends like unique foliage, air-purifying plants, and sustainable choices can elevate your indoor space and enhance your lifestyle. Whether you choose to create a lush jungle or a minimalist sanctuary, 2024 offers a wealth of options to express your personal style. So gather your pots, explore new varieties, and let your indoor garden flourish! Happy planting!

Quick intro

Hello everyone, my name is Nghi and please feel free to pronounce it as Ni, and people often misspell it as night. It's one of the reasons I named my blog DayAndNghi. I’m majoring in Information & Interaction Design, I'm also quite familiar with graphic design. I’m Vietnamese and this is my last semester in UIC so I have quite a so-called identity crisis for now, for not knowing the exact direction to go after graduating but I guess it is the way most undergraduate students have been through. 

I took this course mainly because I think I can benefit a lot from the coursework and in-class material to build a better foundation for UI-UX design. I understand the concept of design thinking process but I want to learn more on how to analyze and design problem.

Let’s talk about hobbies! I think I have quite a bunch to talk about. I’m into arts in general in any kind of form, and I love exhibition hopping on the weekends. My favorite field is interactive multimedia design and contemporary arts. But most of my works are more tangible and practical. For music, I’m also not restricted to any genre, but if I have to choose then definitely house, afrobeats and 2000s R&B. My favorite artists are Burna Boy and Ashanti. Plus, I’m also interested in plants and gardening. I tried at-home gardening a monstera but it’s not going really well so I will appreciate it a lot if any of you can share tips on how to raise a plant at home :)

I choose design as my future career because I believe it’s the best medium to deliver any messages to customers. I would love to go after this as my job in the future. Ideally, my dream is to have my own studio for myself and retire at 40, but then practically I would love to work in an in-house design studio with like-minded people! Oh, it does not sound that big but my dream is also raising cats. I love them a lot but I find myself not mentally responsible enough to fully raise them at this point!! I hope to see my future house with 2-3 cats at least!!

Thank you for reading till the end<3

Luxury Office Interior: High-End Design Concepts

Enchanting scenes boost morale and productivity among workers. These days, even office interior designers prioritise experimenting with design and creating a wonderful atmosphere. Given that practically every company today has a hip workstation, a selfie zone, a relaxing corner, and some even have sleep rooms, it has even greatly increased business for interior designers. 

Employees like working in a joyful atmosphere with well-designed furniture, ornamental walls, and a verdant area full with plants, which increases business. Here is our analysis of the top ten office interior design trends and ideas to add some quirkiness to your workspace.

1. Open Floor Plans 

More space and the opportunity for coworkers to socialise and enjoy their work are features of an open office interior space. An open floor design will enable you to make adjustments as needed in the future. People will be encouraged to move around, which will positively benefit their health. 

2. Include quirky and funky colours

Just because it's an office interior doesn't mean it has to be a dull or colourless space. Using bright colours will make workers happier in the morning and even during the workday. A poor colour choice will make no matter how many adjustments you make to the design. 

The colour will infuse your workspace with enthusiasm and complement the vibe of the space. The top Gurgaon interior design company now uses bright, cheerful colours to inspire their clientele.

3. Use geometry and patterns 

For maximum effect, combine striking geometric designs with unusual colour schemes. To accentuate the design, you might place lighting fixtures in such geometric patterns. Since they aren't meant to be someplace in particular, they can be on the walls, ceilings, floors, or anywhere else. 

To create a statement, you might add geometric patterns to tables, chairs, and other furniture. 

4. Add greenery inside the office interior 

Office interior and designers devoid of vegetation. Do you even have ears to hear this? Kindly set aside a space for indoor plants. Indoor plants bring life to the space. Because of the atmosphere, this will also draw new people to the office interior. Additionally, today's youth are more conscious of the environment, therefore this is an opportunity to demonstrate that the business values the environment and the welfare of its employees. With pollution levels on the rise, adding greenery inside the office interior space is a must. You might include plants like:

Monstera Deliciosa

Areca Palm

Urban Turtle Mix

Lady Palm

String of Pearls

Peperomia

Pothos

Mini Jade Plant, and more. 

5. A big lounge area 

Employee productivity will decline if there is a lounge since they will merely hang out there, but in actuality, the situation is the reverse. Here, your staff members can exchange ideas, unwind, consider their task, and work more quickly. Additionally, people can socialise by gathering for afternoon snacks or coffee in the morning. 

6. Windows, windows and a lot of windows 

Since the window is a luxury, workers frequently search for places to sit so they can work while taking in the beautiful scenery. It's time to go against the convention and the culture that said that the boss's office interior and design was the only place with windows or a room with breathtaking views.

Since they all play a part in the expansion of the company, all employees have an equal right to enjoy their office. Although they charge a little more, Gurugram's interior designers create beautiful designs that take all of these factors into account. In order to make the workspace more open for the staff, the windows might have any design or just be made of glass. 

7. A big kickass conference room 

It should be large, roomy, and furnished to accommodate at least 40 to 50 people at once. The design of the space should reflect the company's ideals and ideas, and it should be well-lit and colourful. 

8. At least one statement wall 

This is a wonderful area to have in the workplace now. The Gurgaon office interior designers suggest having a wall with various colours, a wall covered in vegetation, a wall covered in numerous picture frames, or even just a wall covered in doodling. This will have a powerful effect. 

9. Merge rustic and industrial together 

Despite their differences, you can combine the two to create a unique look. Rustics are consistently visually pleasing. You can make use of rustic chairs, tables, lighting, and other items. 

10. A space for entertainment 

There should be a dedicated area for workers to unwind and temporarily forget about their jobs. Employee adjustment will be facilitated and productivity will rise as a result. Source Link : https://addindiagroup.com/luxury-office-interior-high-end-design-concepts/

Realistic Artificial Floor Plants: No Maintenance, Maximum Impact

In the hustle and bustle of modern life, many of us yearn for the calming presence of greenery in our homes and offices. However, maintaining real plants can be a challenge, especially for those with busy schedules or less-than-green thumbs. Enter fake floor plants—a perfect solution that offers the beauty and impact of real plants without the need for watering, pruning, or special care. In this blog, we will explore the world of realistic artificial floor plants, highlighting their benefits, types, and tips for selecting and decorating with them to achieve maximum impact in your space.

Why Choose Fake Floor Plants?

Artificial floor plants have come a long way from the plastic, obviously fake varieties of the past. Today’s fake plants are incredibly realistic, often indistinguishable from their live counterparts. Here are some compelling reasons to consider adding them to your decor:

No Maintenance Required: One of the biggest advantages of fake floor plants is that they require no maintenance. You don’t need to worry about watering, fertilizing, or pruning. They look perfect from day one and stay that way for years.

Allergy-Friendly: Real plants can sometimes trigger allergies due to pollen or mold. Fake floor plants eliminate this concern, making them ideal for households with allergy sufferers.

Versatility: Artificial plants can thrive in any environment, regardless of light levels or humidity. This makes them perfect for rooms that don’t get much natural light or spaces like bathrooms where real plants might struggle.

Cost-Effective: While the initial cost of high-quality fake plants can be higher than that of real plants, they are a one-time investment. You won’t need to replace them if they die or outgrow their pots, saving you money in the long run.

Pet-Safe: Many real plants are toxic to pets, posing a danger to curious cats and dogs. Fake floor plants provide a safe alternative that looks just as good.

Types of Realistic Artificial Floor Plants

There is a wide variety of fake floor plants available, catering to different tastes and decor styles. Here are some popular types:

Fiddle Leaf Fig: Known for its large, glossy leaves, the fiddle leaf fig is a trendy choice. High-quality artificial versions capture the plant's distinctive look without the need for bright, indirect light or careful watering.

Selecting High-Quality Fake Floor Plants

To ensure your artificial floor plants look as realistic as possible, it’s important to choose high-quality options. Here are some tips for selecting the best fake plants:

Materials: Look for plants made from high-quality materials such as silk, plastic, and latex. These materials can mimic the texture and color of real plants more effectively than cheaper options.

Attention to Detail: High-quality fake plants will have detailed features like realistic veining, variation in leaf color, and natural-looking stems. Avoid plants that look too uniform or have obvious seams.

Potting: The pot and base of the plant can greatly affect its realism. Choose plants that come with a sturdy, well-designed pot that complements your decor. You can also re-pot fake plants in decorative planters for a more personalized touch.

Size and Scale: Consider the size and scale of the plant in relation to your space. A well-proportioned fake plant can make a room feel balanced and inviting, while one that is too large or small can look out of place.

Brand Reputation: Research brands and read reviews to find reputable manufacturers known for producing high-quality, realistic fake plants.

Decorating with Fake Floor Plants

Incorporating fake floor plants into your decor can transform your space, adding life and vibrancy. Here are some tips for decorating with artificial plants:

Create a Focal Point: Use a large, statement plant like a fiddle leaf fig or bird of paradise as a focal point in your room. Place it in an empty corner or next to a piece of furniture to draw the eye and add visual interest.

Group Plants Together: Grouping multiple plants together can create a lush, layered look. Combine different types of plants with varying heights and textures for a more natural, garden-like feel.

Mix with Real Plants: If you have some real plants, mix in fake ones to create a fuller, more diverse display. The fake plants can help fill in gaps and add variety without adding to your maintenance workload.

Use in Low-Light Areas: Place fake plants in areas where real plants would struggle, such as windowless rooms, hallways, or bathrooms. This can brighten up dark spaces and make them feel more welcoming.

Add to Unexpected Places: Think beyond the living room and consider adding fake floor plants to other areas of your home. They can look great in the kitchen, bedroom, or even the laundry room, adding a touch of greenery where you least expect it.

Seasonal Switches: Change your fake plants with the seasons to keep your decor fresh and interesting. Use bright, tropical plants in the summer and switch to more subdued, evergreen varieties in the winter.

Caring for Your Fake Floor Plants

While fake floor plants require much less care than real ones, they still need a bit of attention to keep them looking their best. Here are some maintenance tips:

Dust Regularly: Dust can accumulate on the leaves and make your fake plants look dull. Use a soft cloth or duster to gently wipe the leaves and keep them looking fresh.

Clean Occasionally: For a deeper clean, you can use a damp cloth to wipe down the leaves. Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they can damage the material.

Rotate Plants: If your fake plants are in a sunny spot, rotate them occasionally to prevent one side from fading. This can help maintain their color and keep them looking realistic.

Re-Potting: If your plant’s pot starts to look worn or doesn’t match your decor, consider re-potting it in a new container. This can give your plant a fresh look and help it blend seamlessly with your decor.

Fluff and Shape: Over time, the leaves and stems of your fake plants might get bent or flattened. Take a few minutes to fluff and shape them back into place to maintain their natural appearance.

Conclusion

Realistic artificial floor plants offer the perfect combination of beauty and convenience, bringing the vibrant charm of greenery into your home without the hassle of maintenance. Whether you’re looking to create a striking focal point, add a touch of nature to low-light areas, or simply enjoy the aesthetic appeal of lush foliage, fake floor plants are a versatile and practical choice. By selecting high-quality plants, strategically placing them in your space, and giving them a bit of occasional care, you can enjoy the maximum impact of greenery in your home or office—all without lifting a watering can.
